Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn received a maximum fine from the NHL Department of Player Safety on Wednesday for cross-checking Ryan Hartman of the Minnesota Wild.
Benn received a fine of $2,604.17, which is the maximum allowable under the league's collective bargaining agreement.
Benn, 36, is lighter in the wallet after cross-checking Hartman in the ribs and then again in the head late in the third period of Tuesday's Game 5 of the teams' Western Conference first-round series.
Benn received a two-minute penalty for cross-checking, while Hartman was whistled for unsportsmanlike conduct.
The Wild posted a 4-2 victory on Tuesday to seize a 3-2 edge in the best-of-seven series. Game 6 is Thursday in St. Paul, Minn.
